Spa Girl says YES to seducing the senses with devine design

I was surfing the bookstores and came across this beautiful book. I’m the first to admit that although I have way too many books (is that possible?) and not enough time, I have a deep passion for books. I think it’s their tangible nature that attracts me. I also think there is nothing better than sitting in front of a roaring fire or on a sunny beach with a good book. A friend once remarked that if you like reading you will never be lonely.

Books that have a sense of their own aesthetic are also high on my priority list—so well designed that you slide into them like a comfortable pair of shoes.

I am also an enthusiast of great architecture, so a book that marries architecture and spas, well Spa Girl thinks this seduces the senses! The title of the book is Architectural Interiors: Spas and this is what they say…

This stylish volume showcases page after page of spa aesthetics in a delightful manner that is bound to capture the interest of spa operators, designers, architects, the design-savvy public, and spa worshippers.

The spas of today are fuelled by a holistic awareness that is fast becoming a given in today's fast-paced society. As more people are getting in touch with their inner well-being, spas are the top-choice destination for those after a balanced lifestyle. From inner city spas catering to busy executives to luxurious resorts dotting the fringes of exotic islands, each spa featured in Architectural Interiors: Spas was designed for the ultimate relaxation and pampering of the mind, body, and soul, with some even picking up awards along the way. Published in 2007 (ISBN: 28889348)

Spa Girls Blog

I created the SPA GIRL blog in 2009 because I wanted to share my spa experiences.
I am a big fan of aromatherapy,
thalassotherapy, spa cuisine and history.
I love to pamper myself, inside and out! And why not? I work hard, travel a lot and find the spa experience exciting each and every time.
Since the beginning of history, people have resorted to springs, baths, and spas for the therapeutic effects and power of their healing waters. Today the Spa experience has expanded to include so many ways to live a happy, healthy, holistic lifestyle.
Relax, rejuvenate, and restore: that’s Spa Girl's motto.
Spa Girl covers a number of my interests including: aromatherapy, home spa treatments, spa modalities, feel good tips, spa destinations, natural products and spa foods.
Spa Girl is also on facebook where in addition to my blogs I post links to other spa writers, spa reviews and tips.
I have studied aromatherapy for a number of years and create my own salt scrubs, bath oils, soaps and skin creams.
I am an avid researcher and love to research all aspects of the spa industry, study and of course try every spa experience there is.
My other passion is art museums.
